John Travolta, shown above reminding us that we should have fucking known that he's crazy, has decided that criminal neglect of his autistic son hasn't made him enough of a pariah. He's going for Tom Cruise levels of outcast here.
"I don't disagree with anything Tom says," Travolta offers on the subject of Cruise's tirade against psychiatric medications. "How would I have presented it? Maybe differently than how he did, but it doesn't matter. I still think that if you analyze most of the school shootings, it is not gun control. It is [psychotropic] drugs at the bottom of it. I don't want to create controversy; I just have an opinion on things, and there is nothing wrong with stating your opinion if you are asked. Everyone wants that right, and because you are famous doesn't mean you have less of a right."I don't disagree that being famous takes away your right to state your opinion. You know what does take away your right to state your opinion? Having the opinions that John Travolta and Tom Cruise have. That should disqualify you automatically.
Also, I was unaware that the debate on school shootings had only two sides: gun control vs. psychiatry. Thank you, John Travolta, for making yourself as hard to take seriously as our good buddy Tom.
